Hi,
DVB Inspector is a great tool and it would be fantastic if it could be found within Flathub Software Repo. This repo is included by default within the Software application on Fedora Linux, one-click installation, adds the app to application menu and provides an update mechanism.

The publishing process involves creating a manifest and adding to the Flatpak github.

I've included an illustrative flatpak project. To build on a Fedora Linux system:

# one-off install tooling
sudo dnf install flatpak flatpak-builder
sudo flatpak install org.freedesktop.Sdk//21.08 org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.openjdk17//21.08

# build 
flatpak-builder --force-clean build-dir manifest.json

# local build test run
flatpak-builder --run build-dir manifest.json dvbinspector.sh

# to build and install locally for the user (icon and menu item will magically appear)
flatpak-builder --force-clean --install --user build-dir manifest.json

Cheerio
